In this insightful episode of Parenting on the Spectrum, Theresa sits down with Dr. Emily Levy, Founder and Director of EBL Coaching, to explore how sensory-based strategies can transform learning for children with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences. Dr. Levy shares how understanding each child’s unique sensory and cognitive profile can help build stronger foundations for reading, writing, and executive functioning—without frustration or shame.
Together, they discuss practical ways parents and educators can create supportive, multi-sensory environments that empower children to learn in ways that feel natural, engaging, and confidence-building.
✨ Join us as we reimagine education through a sensory lens—where every learner is understood and supported to thrive.
